IA LIVELY TRIAL.
oSg JUSTICE OF rHEPRACE HAS ANOTHER
BEFORE HIN.
Squire W. Il. Davis Charged With Piing
on Excessive COss in Case in
HIS Court

There was a lively and interesting
civil case before Justice Ralph Arkle,
yesterday afternoon, the defendant being
Justice w. H. Davis. The action was
brought by Charles Neuman, who alleged
thai Squire Davis had, at the settlement
of case, charged an excessive and unlaw-
full amount of costs. The ease arose out OF
a warrant sworn out before Justice Davis in
the early part of March by George Paur,
who charged Charles Neuman with having
applied to him vile epithet Upon
hearing of the evidence the Justice Im-
posed fine of one dollar and costs against
Neuman and also put him under 500
bonds to keep the peace. The. defendant,
Neuman, in presenting his case yesterday,
alleged that the total of the fine and costs
was 5000, and claimed that this was
a. 20 more than should have been taxed
against him. In settling up Neuman paid
Squire Davis Sc. 20 in cash, the other "a
being deducted as the balance OF an old
account owed Neuman by the Justice.
The hearing Of the evidence was begun
at 3o'cloek yesterday. The trial lasted
over two hours, and was funny all the way
through. John o. PendletOn represented
the defense, while J. d. Elson appeared for
Mr.. Neuman. The hearing showed rather
mixed condition of affairs, the Justice, &c
cordiug to the acts of 1882, having over
charged in some instances, while in Others
he failed to make charges which would
have been lawful. The jury caught on to
the situation and returned the following
verdict:
1--WE, the jury, find that if the defend
ant is not entitled to charge % cents each
for two bills, he overcharged S1.75, and if
he is entitled to make such charges he
overcharged SIPS"
1t is proper to say that one or two little
off. sets held by Justice Davis were ruled
out by Justice Arkle. After the verdict
had been returned counsel for Mr.. Davis
made motion to set aside the verdict, and
this will be argued at future day. If the
motion is denied it is probable the case
will be taken up on suit of ceTtiOrari be-
cause a jury cannot be had when the
amount involved is less than $50, anu four
times the alleged overcharge OF $3.50,
allowed plaintiff under the law, falls lit
tie short of the $40 mark.

The NInnI,iarsl strike.

Joseph Bell X Co. were seen yesterday
in reference to the reported strike at their
works, and q member of the firm stated
that their recent closing down had nothing
whatever to do with the present matter
nor the introduction Of the st. Louis pat
terms into their establishment; that they
closed down merely as a matter Of business
policy, because they did not need as much
ware Us was being turned ont. he SAID;
I'VE are working as many hands now as
We ever did, and the statement IN the
Nelrs Letter that orr foreman Is a union
man isnOt true, and that he refused to work
on the st. Louis moulds is also untrue.
Upon request he gave the Newsletter the
true statement of affairs and they turned
in and published a statement Numerically
opposite from the truth concerning his p0-
sition and action. We have one union
man working for us and he is still work
ing, and will continue as hong as he wants
to-"
What about the st. Louis patterns?"
'sWell, they have been sent to us to use,
and We propose to mould from them. we
are conducting our own business and will
continue to do so, Notwithstanding all the
false statements that may be made. lOu
can say that there is no. strike at our
place, nor is there likely TO he any"
A visit was also paid to the establish
ment of B. Fisher & Son, and the reporter
there learned that they anticipated no
trouble. Mr.. Charles Fisher of the firm
said: "Our foundry is running on full
time and will eontinue to do so. We have
not refused to use the st. louis patterns
because they have not been sent 10 VS., but
had they been sent We would not use them
for we have all the work We can attend
to in manufacturing our own ware, and rs
we are working for our own'interests that
is what we intend 20 continue to do.
As B. Fisher & Son, the Martins Ferry
Stove Works, and the Bellaire foundries
do nodbelong to the National Association,
no trouble is anticipated in this vicinity.

He snnsaled OH the Rest.

Henry Phillip was arrested and lodged
in Jail at Little Washington Monday. He
is wagon maker in Taylorstown, aud ID
charged with being a member of the gang
that has been breaking into tho stores in
that neighborhood. The last robbery in
TaylorstOwn was committed about two
months ago, when $500 worth of goods
were taken from Anderson & Buchanan s
general merchandise establishment. FAR
ties in town were suspected and on Satur-
day last, when a stranger appeared and in
quired for Mr.. Phillip, one of the suspect
ed parties, he was closely questioned.
Finally he acknowledged that he was there
to purchase the stolen goods, then alleged
to he in Phillips possession. He was
taken to Washington where he gave infar-
nation that will likely lead to the arrest
OF Others implicated.

The Not Unexpected Result of Yesterdays

The Not Unexpected Result of Yesterdays
Game.
The weather and the condition of the
ground were not favorable for base ball
playing yesterday, but despite this the
game between the home team and the
Duluth's came of at the Broadway
grounds, and was witnessed by about three
hundred spectators. As the Wheeling
players have hardly become acquainted
with one another as yet, very good play
ing WAS not looked for, and when the
ninth inning was ended with the score
standing at 20 to in favor
OF the visitors, there was nc
surprise. The Duluths are crack organ
izatiOn, having walked away with the
peunant in the Northwestern League last
year, and are in the habit of holding down
clubs away up in the base ball record.
Some good playing was done by our men,
but there were also several weak spots.
Criticism would be hardly fair ut this stage
of the game, however, and it may merely
be remarked that the club as whole gives
promise of good work as the season pro-
crosses:

As an actor Mr.. Emmett is as pleasing as OF

his voice is by no means what it used to be.
In fact it is only Mr.. Emmet's pleasing
way that makes his songs take. His sup
port was fairly good and the little chill

an article, which appeared in Saturdays
Pittsburg papers, dated Youngstown, O.,
in which A. B. Clarke, soap agent, ac-
cuSes NJ rs. Rose Lyons with clipping with
his brother, youth of 16 years who pro-
cured tickets for New Castle. ltnow turns
out, according to telegram in last even
ing's Pittsburg Leader, that Clarke, on his
own confession yesterday in writing, made
this allegation out of revenge upon Mrs.
Lyons. The publication of the charge was
the cause of Mrs. Lyons demanding
Clarke to make immediate reparations, or
to answer the charge in court. Clarke re-
quests a contradiction.

Shamus O'Brlen.

OfMr Charles Erin Werner and his

O'Brien' is an Irish story, beautiful and
pure full of fun as the legendary hot place
il full of fiddlers, and as graphic and thrill
ing as the dream of an opium eater. The
hero role of 'Shamus' is played by Mr..
Werner, who, at one period OF his life, was
outlaMed in Ireland for his patriotism,
and who, as 'Shamus' has hut to live over
the adventurous scenes of his bOyhoOd
again, to melt an audience to tears, con-
vulse it with laughter, or arouse il to the
widest enthusiasm"

Later News From st. Clairsville.
special Correspondence Of the Register.

ST. GAINESVILLE, o., April 10.
The rain of yesterday and the day before
about completed the work Of desolatiOn
begun by the cyclone last Friday after
noon. The tornado lasted half minute,
but the marks of its fury st. Clairsville
will wear forever. The hogses left roofess
by the storm have been dTenGhed and
soaked by the persistent drizzle, and it is
estimated that to-day will add many thou
sand dollars of damage to the great loss
that the town has already suffered. Only
the MethOdists held religious service Sun
day and few attended. The people were
too busy preparing for the much dreaded
but expected rain. Everybody seemed
to be at work.
The pastor sst the example for the peo-
pie in the work Of necessity and mercy and
the sound of the saw and hammer became
monotonous before the day was over. The
deacons and elders put on their working
clothes, aud colored campmeeting ex-
horteo once more shOuldered his bod. !
The goods from the stOrerOOms of Fred
erick TROLLS Sons we're removed this morn
ing as the improyised roof was leaking
badly. They were also compelled to move
out of their dwelling on account Of its
damaged condition. The losses are figured
up now about as follows: II. c. Welday,
S., 600; c. W. Patton, $40, 600; Samuel and
J. W. Riley, 5000; J. H. Close, $1,000;
Conrad Trolls Sons, $1,000; Fred. Trolls
Sons, 1900; John Coleman, 81, 500; Mrs.

Cochran, s., 500; Col j. r. Mitchell, ST.
500; Benz. Rarkhufst, s., 04Q; /. Murdoch
S., 600; d. Steenrod, $500 These are the
principal losers. Fhe great majority, how
ever, lost under s., 600, and in all the raw
ages of the cyclone will be put at about
500, 900.
Indeed, the real damage cannot be got
